Estonia - A Must Visit Place for A True Traveler. When to go to Estonia

When you visit Estonia, you get to experience a mix of wilderness and urbanity, of the mediaeval and the contemporary. With colorful designs and crumbling castles spread throughout the urban landscapes, Estonia does make you stop and stare in wonderment. Even though it is the smallest of the Baltic countries, Esti does not fail to make its presence known. Known for its quaint country villages, lovely seaside towns, verdant marshlands and forests, Estonia has a lot to offer to its visitors. Here, you will get the chance to discover many natural and cultural gems. So, if you are planning to visit the country of pristine islands, magnificent castles and a cosmopolitan capital, make sure you pick the right time to make the trip.

Best time to visit Estonia

Summer and late spring are the best times to visit the Baltic countries. The weather stays pleasant during this time. So you can enjoy a stroll through the city and the famous tourist spots. As idyllic as the Baltic countries are during spring and summer, you should watch out for the dark, deep winters. Even though in the other seasons, weather can take turns for the extremes, during the winters, it is pretty predictable. Summer continues from mid-June to late August. You may experience days when the weather is hot and dry, but you are also likely to get rainfall and chilly nights. That is why you must have a light sweater and a waterproof jacket in your bag pack.

Temperature starts to drop from mid-September onwards. But if you want to experience the truly beautiful side of Estonia, you must visit the country during autumn. The golden brown leaves of the deciduous trees create a beautiful contrast with the dark-green pines. If you arrive in Estonia during the mid-November, you may get to enjoy the first snowfall of the year. However, during the mid-December, you will get heavy snowfall. During winters, temperature mostly stays below freezing and conditions don’t improve until March. Despite the harsh, chilly weather, winter does turn Estonia into a magical land with the frozen lakes, rivers and large expanses of the Baltic Sea. When the forests and medieval towns get covered with snowflakes, you are bound to feel like you are in the magical land of Narnia!
